Oceania’, as you would expect, has arresting ocean views. Built in 1946 in what is best described as Post-War Functionalist’ style, the result is a timeless classic home with a modern feel. Oceania’ is a home combining the best of what both the Old Thirroul and the New Cool Thirroul’ have to offer. A taste of everything indeed!
Outside you have the sea, the bush and the open sky – all viewed from the very private and gently elevated vantage point of a lovely heritage listed home. There’s not a lot more you could ask for – except for the good fortune to be the lucky new owner.
Features:-
- The skilful positioning of the house on the 942sqm block and the welcoming swerve of the front steps creates a marvellous ambience as they lead you up past the perfectly proportioned curves
- Upon entry you will be struck by a feel that is modern, tasteful and yet still retains the charm of very late art deco styling
- An attractive layout, the lounge captures ocean views and flows gracefully to the central living with a funky modern feel
